The Board of Peace has issued a 15-point “roadmap” to implement President Donald Trump’s Gaza ceasefire proposal. This plan outlines steps toward disarming Hamas and gradually withdrawing Israeli forces from Palestinian territories.

Key highlights include:

  • Both Israel, Hamas, and other Palestinian factions will cease military activities.
  • The timeline and detailed procedures will be established within 14 days once all parties endorse the plan; extensions may be possible.
  • The National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) will deploy into Gaza and begin assuming governing responsibilities.
  • Progress to subsequent phases depends on verified completion of prior commitments.
  • An International Verification Committee (IVC) will oversee verification and monitor violations during the process.
  • Gaza will be managed under the principle of “One Authority, One Law, One Weapon,” with NCAG operating according to Palestinian laws and international standards.
  • Newly trained police officers will integrate into existing structures after thorough vetting; personnel not meeting standards will be reassigned civilian roles. All police weapons will transfer to NCAG control.
  • A process to decommission, store, and manage Hamas’s heavy weapons, military sites, depots, and tunnels will be gradually implemented by NCAG, tied to phased Israeli withdrawals.
  • Weapons will not be transferred to Israel or other non-Palestinian entities; ultimately, NCAG will hold all weapons.
  • A temporary International Stabilization Force (ISF) will be stationed in Gaza to separate Israeli forces from NCAG-controlled areas.
  • The ISF will monitor ceasefire compliance, train Palestinian police, secure humanitarian aid, and support NCAG, but will not perform policing or societal security functions.
